ryan_bHello, I am having a problem with my new HD-PVR.  I can watch live TV for about 15-30 seconds and then the entire system crashes.  Nothing but a hard boot will bring it back.  Same with recorded TV, only no crash.  Recording ends about 30 seconds in and nothin.  HD-PVR also requires a power cycle everytime this happens.06:02
ryan_bInterestingly, the system has also crashed while performing an update while vnc'd into the system.  Maybe its an X problem, but I can't find anything in the log to suggest that.06:03
rhpot1991ryan_b: well that sounds like a system stability issue then, try running memtest on the system06:04
rhpot1991you could try updateting your HD-PVR firmware as well, wont help if its a system issue though06:05
ryan_bTried both already, mem-test ran clean over night and the HD-PVR came with the most up to date (1.5.6.1 I think) firmware.  Also, this is a recently converted system from Knoppmyth, in which I had no stability problems.  I just didn't care for LinHES so I decided to give Mythbuntu a try06:07
ryan_bah well, thanks for the suggestions, it's been a long night, so I guess I'll pick back up later.06:29

avihay_tvok, I have a pvr150. I have problems watching live TV. here is the relevent log sniplet: http://mythbuntu.pastebin.com/wFJtuw6L21:52
avihay_tvI'm starting to think I set up the card as the wrong type. used v4L. should I use something else?21:53
avihay_tvok, I'm guessing the mpeg-2 pvr-x50 should have gave me a hint21:55
avihay_tvbut I even managed to scan for channles21:56
klucaswell I'm not familar with that card specifically but I set up my PcHDTV HD-5500 as a dvb device21:56
klucasand it works like a charm21:56
